Brouwer\u2019s distinctive modern classical stylings anchor the dramatic and emotive three-part historical event series with soaring orchestration, dark vocalizations and unique instrumentation such as the use of ancient horns. The series debuted on National Geographic July 22 and is streaming now on Disney+ and Hulu.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Notes Brouwer: \u201cScoring Pompeii: Out of Time meant finding music for a moment we all think we already know and then discovering how much of it we didn&#8217;t. I wanted the score to hold space for both the seismic force and scale of Vesuvius, and the intimate, human choices of the people living through it.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Pompeiian Cornu sits at the heart of that search &#8211; an instrument reborn from the very ash that destroyed it, preserved by the same disaster that once silenced it. Recorded at Real World Studios, its sound is woven through the score alongside haunting vocals and experimental orchestral layers, blurring the line between score and sound design to mirror the tremors and turmoil of a disaster on this magnitude.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe emotional expanse of this series is a testament to the incredible team and Tom Hiddleston&#8217;s storytelling, spanning fear, grief, and action &#8211; and ultimately, the resilient beauty we all still connect to in Pompeii.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Host and \u201cLoki\u201d star Tom Hiddleston and \u201cLoki\u201d executive producer Kevin R. Wright reunite for Pompeii: Out of Time, a fusion of cinematic scripted drama and investigative documentary storytelling that transports audiences to ancient Rome in the hours before and during the eruption of Mount Vesuvius. Guided by a team of archaeologists, historians, geologists and disaster experts, he uncovers remarkable evidence \u2014 and the stories of real people that challenge long-held assumptions about Pompeii and its final hours \u2014 not least revealing that many of those caught up in the disaster had the chance to survive. Blending cutting-edge archaeological discoveries, expert analysis and deeply personal storytelling, the series reframes Pompeii not as a story of destruction but as a human drama of resilience, sacrifice and survival, revealing the lives, choices and destinies of those who stood in the shadow of Vesuvius.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Track Listing<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Out Of Time<\/li>\n<li>I Pray To You<\/li>\n<li>You Wallow<\/li>\n<li>Time Travel<\/li>\n<li>Vesuvius<\/li>\n<li>Final Act<\/li>\n<li>Eruption<\/li>\n<li>Run<\/li>\n<li>Alumno<\/li>\n<li>Rescue Mission<\/li>\n<li>Real People<\/li>\n<li>Reunited<\/li>\n<li>Heroes<\/li>\n<li>Herculaneum<\/li>\n<li>Burning Black Sandstorm<\/li>\n<li>Perspective<\/li>\n<li>Goddess<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>ABOUT AISLING BROUWER<\/p>\n<p>Aisling Brouwer is a Dutch\/Irish composer, producer, and artist based in London, whose darkly emotive scores build cinematic worlds that feel at once intimate and immense.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Her latest score is for the upcoming Disney and National Geographic series Pompeii: Out of Time, which reunites Loki executive producer Kevin R.
